Nothing connected to this admin is credible so I stopped reading after “DOJ”

Hegseth’s comments about Weiss taking over whichever outlet was questioning him the other day would have been huge red alarms in any other administration

I wonder why Trump hasn’t changed the name to Department of Punishment.

DOPE (Dept of Partisan Execution)

The Department of Retribution

Let’s get real here, that dipshit would call it the Department of F*** You Up and sleep just fine.

Actually theyre very truthful because the only reason they feel the need to say this is because it is a political deal. When ever this admin says something, its often projection suggesting theyre saying the truth just spun around.

RipErRiley Mar 18, 2026 +6

I’ve known since 2016 that whatever this admin states, the opposite is most often found to be true.

It is pretty much saying through someone with an ethnic name as they do, which is an admission that this will happen, that the Paramount Skydance (genocidal monsters) acquisition of WB will not be fast tracked because it is not a political thing. So I expect it to happen immediately.

As of this year, monopolies can only exist if it’s run by liberals.

RipErRiley Mar 18, 2026 +6

The problem with your statement is reality.

NBucho528 Mar 19, 2026 +2

I didn’t think I’d need to explain, but I guess nobody understood that I was saying it as if I was the DOJ. Of course I believe this administration is guilty of allowing horrible monopolies, they’re guilty of every single thing that they claim the left is guilty of doing.

Yeah sure. Conservatives and the billionaire class have not been buying up all our media for years, using it to swing us more right, and then propagandizing us. We completely made that up. It does not behoove them to do so. They have no benefit from doing so. The millions they make is inconsequential.🙄

hikemalls Mar 18, 2026 +15

Antitrust used to mean being opposed to corporate monopolies. Clearly now it means "the opposite of trustworthy"

fudgemental Mar 18, 2026 +14

Yes. Trump did not step in causing Netflix to back off. Daddy Ellison did not clear the way for a 15B company in 30B of debt to buy a 111B company. Nothing political at all. DoJ is Department of Jest, and not a very good one.

Awesomegcrow Mar 18, 2026 +9

If Democrat win November, they should launch investigations and block this deal right away. Right wing Billionaires is trying to control News and Television and this administration is helping that effort.

ArchDucky Mar 18, 2026 +9

So it is when Netflix buys them but not the people that own roughly 40% of all media? ……rrrriiiiggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhttttttt

The DOJ is heavily compromised already... so what they say doesn't matter. The AG literally said we should thank the President. That's... unheard of nor her place to even say it. So much for independence. All we're hoping for at this point is elections that work so they're not our last.

Yeah…and Trump said no wars in his campaign.

The next admin should just invalidate every decision made by this admin at every level by default. It’s better to undo a million bad things at the cost of a dozen good things, than to leave a million bad things in place out of fear you may undo a dozen good things. We can find and reenact the good things later.

If it wasn't already super clear tje DOJ is corrupt, this should make it obvious to everyone.

“The idea that somehow enforcement has been politicized is ludicrous," said Acting Assistant Attorney General Omeed Assefi, who declined to comment on ongoing probes.” Hahahhahahaha ok guys. Cuz you haven’t been public ally commenting saying they need ur approval or anything. Cuz the president didn’t just get $1bkion from the TikTok deal or anything They really assume everyone just believes the sound bites they say on faux news

Well, if they say its not political

Twigling Mar 19, 2026 +1

Of course not .......... /s The thing is this, billionaire right wing media owners want their substantial tax breaks, they also want to control the narrative for economic reasons, therefore deregulation and 'cutting red tape'. As always, follow the money.
